The diagram is intended to show relationships in an ecosystem. What do the arrows represent?
The direction of population migration
Differences in dietary habits
Progressively smaller organisms
The direction of the energy flow
What is the sun's role in the energy pyramid?
to produce chemical energy for the ecosystem.
to provide radiant energy for producers to convert to chemical energy.
to start the energy flow of the ecosystem.
to provide mechanical energy for producers to convert to chemical energy.
In this energy pyramid, what is the proper name for ANY ORGANISM ABOVE THE PRODUCER LEVEL?
decomposers

The diagram represents different levels of a marine food pyramid. Between which two levels is the greatest amount of energy transferred?
3 and 4
all equal amounts of energy being transferred
2 and 3
1 and 2
Which organism in figure 1 contains the most available energy?
plants
hawks and owls
spiders
foxes
The diagram represents a model of a food pyramid. Which statement best describes what happens in this food pyramid?
More organisms die at higher levels than at lower levels, resulting in less mass at higher levels.
When organisms die at higher levels, their remains sink to lower levels, increasing the mass of lower levels.
Energy is lost to the environment at each level, so less mass can be supported at each higher level.
Organisms decay at each level, and thus less mass can be supported at higher levels
In the energy pyramid below, which organism has the least amount of energy available?
primary carnivore
top carnivore
producers
herbivores

rabbits
bacteria
plants
worms

Bacteria are responsible for converting Nitrogen into a form that can be used by plants
Nitrogen is not a very important element to living organisms
Nitrogen fixing takes place during photosynthesis
Which of the following is correct about the carbon cycle?
Photosynthesis of plant life is one of the main producers of CO2
Burning fossil fuels decreases atmospheric CO2
Glucose is a form of carbon storage in plants
